Patent number: 10179465Abstract: A cutter accessory is provided for use in combination with a printing device as part of a printing system. The cutter accessory includes a body that is configured to be mounted onto the printing device. An access door is mounted to the body and movable between a closed position and an open position. A slot is defined in the access door and configured to receive printed material from the printing device when the access door is in the closed position. A cutting blade is movably mounted to the body, with at least one cam being associated with the cutting blade. The cam is operable to move the cutting blade with respect to the slot to cut the printed material and is accessible when the access door is in the open position, but not accessible when the access door is in the closed position.Type: GrantFiled: December 7, 2016Date of Patent: January 15, 2019Assignee: AVERY DENNISON RETAIL INFORMATION SERVICES, LLCInventors: Larri B. Williams, Lance D. Neuhard, Timothy J. Entingh, Kelly L. Johnson

Patent number: 8094336Abstract: A printer for printing on a web of record members such as labels, tags, etc. includes an interpreter and a memory for storing an application program. The interpreter is enabled or disabled by the receipt of a command. When enabled, the interpreter processes an application program to extract data from a received data stream and to construct one or more data packets in a predetermined printer control language to be sent to a parser. When the interpreter is disabled, the received data may be processed by an XML or PCL task and forwarded to the parser, bypassing the interpreter.Type: GrantFiled: October 11, 2007Date of Patent: January 10, 2012Assignee: Avery Dennison CorporationInventor: Kelly L. Johnson

Patent number: 7283268Abstract: A printer for printing on a web of record members such as labels, tags, etc. includes an interpreter and a memory for storing an application program. The interpreter is enabled or disabled by the receipt of a command. When enabled, the interpreter processes an application program to extract data from a received data stream and to construct one or more data packets in a predetermined printer control language to be sent to a parser. When the interpreter is disabled, the received data is sent to the parser bypassing the interpreter. The printer of the present invention is thus operable to print received data with or without an application program.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 2002Date of Patent: October 16, 2007Assignee: Paxar CorporationInventor: Kelly L.

Patent number: 6681071Abstract: An indoor/outdoor dry core fiber optic cable or sub-unit that incorporates a plurality of optical fibers surrounded by a buffer material wound helically or in reverse-oscillated lay about a water blocking central strength member at a first tension and a first lay length and a water blocking strength member layer wound helically or in reverse-oscillated lay about the optical fibers at a second tension and a second lay length such that the combination of the buffer material, first tension, first lay length, second tension and second lay length result in an indoor/outdoor dry core optical cable capable of meeting ICEA-696 standards.Type: GrantFiled: May 15, 2002Date of Patent: January 20, 2004Assignee: Fitel USA Corp.Inventors: Wayne M. Newton, Mark I. Shmukler, Charles W. Jackson, Carla G. Wilson, Priya L. Tabaddor, Kelly L. Johnson

Patent number: 6575346Abstract: A torque capstan is provided for use in an optical fiber cable manufacturing process which enables reverse oscillating lay (ROL) length to be maintained. The torque capstan comprises a first portion having at least two pulleys rotationally mounted thereon, a second portion having at least two pulleys rotationally mounted thereon, and first and second drive belts mounted on the pulleys of the first and second capstan portions, respectively. Rotational motion is imparted to the first and/or second drive belts through a drive system that is coupled to a drive pulley of at least one of the first and second capstan portions. Rotation of at least one of the drive pulley(s) causes the respective drive belt to rotate in a direction parallel to, or substantially parallel to, a direction in which an optical fiber cable being manufactured in the optical fiber cable manufacturing process is being pulled. Contact between the drive belts causes the drive belts to rotate in the same direction.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 2001Date of Patent: June 10, 2003Assignee: Fitel USA CorporationInventors: Slobodan F. Fenjac, Kelly L. Johnson, Wayne M. Newton, Eugene R. Rusiecki, Mark I. Shmukler, Donald D. Vargasreyes
